Used with Permission by, Linda DeSilva The music on last Sunday’s BBN radio presentation of ‘SONGS IN THE NIGHT’ was different from the norm. Usually there is a male soloist and a ladies’ ensemble. This time, the Moody Church Choir sang a selection in which one group chanted in unison “YOU ARE NOT ALONE!” repeatedlywhileContinue reading “NEVER ALONE!”

A LOWLY NAZARENE
In fact, they may lose their “cool” in an effort to destroy any allegiance that I might possess in acknowledging Christ as my Lord and Savior. They wonder why I might show allegiance to a “made up story” about an illegitimate child who is purportedly God in flesh. Of course they address it as aContinue reading “A LOWLY NAZARENE”
MOON IN MIRRORS
It was early in the morning and I was heading down Grand Avenue. Checking traffic as usual I glanced at my rear-view mirrors. The full moon of the night before was continuing to hover above the horizon. Immediately my mind fell in gear to the reality that I was looking at a reflection of aContinue reading “MOON IN MIRRORS”
JUST A REMINDER
This was far more than the need to tie a string around the finger, and certainly not something that should be so soon forgotten that it no longer was having an effect on the lives of the dispersed tribes. The message of the Messiah, Jesus, had reached the “scattered tribes” and effected a transformation inContinue reading “JUST A REMINDER”
A WORLD IN MOTION – PART 3
A star in motion … Wise men in motion … Herod in motion … Joseph-Mary in motion … More wise men in motion … Angels in motion … Shepherds in motion … A Child in motion… And all because God was in motion! A prophetic promise had been made to men by God (Genesis 3:15)Continue reading “A WORLD IN MOTION – PART 3”
A WORLD IN MOTION – PART II
While “a Star” was edging wise men from the East toward Jerusalem, a decree was being enacted by Caesar Augustus to register and tax the folk under his control. A young couple, Joseph and Mary, in obedience to that decree, headed toward Bethlehem from Nazareth. Enough is spelled out in the Gospels to give clarityContinue reading “A WORLD IN MOTION – PART II”
A WORLD IN MOTION – PART I
In reading the story of the birth of the Savior of mankind, Jesus, I recalled how God had to put everything into motion so that even simple minded people like me could not help but observe that only thousands of years later there would be the evidence of HIS planned program. There had been aContinue reading “A WORLD IN MOTION – PART I”
SPONGE CAKE
I have many dear friends in Bermuda, my place of birth a few years back. Among them have been Joel and Jane Madeiros. Their home has been our home whenever we return. Jane went “home” to be with the Lord, and I returned for her funeral. At the funeral I mentioned how Jane always preparedContinue reading “SPONGE CAKE”
PITY
We have all faced situations that can be described as piteous. Jesus had been at the early stages of His ministry here upon the earth. In Matthew 6 we find Him presenting truths relative to the Kingdom and also healing people who were experiencing physical problems. We have almost little or no knowledge of why,Continue reading “PITY”
FOOL’S GOLD
We were on a short getaway when I experienced my initial contact with “fool’s gold”. The experience was an interesting one, for I had no comprehension of what gold should look like. I was washing my face in the creek to get awake and asked my friend what I was looking at; for in thoseContinue reading “FOOL’S GOLD”
